Mar 04, 2016If you are not currently reading The Walking Dead, you need to fix that immediately. This is easily one of the best books out today that consistently delivers with unsuspecting twists and deaths while still finding ways to challenge and push our characters to their limits. This issue is a perfect example of what there is to love about this comic. It shows action, character and plot development, action, suspense, and hope. Yes, Kirkman will give you anxiety as you read it with the constant fear of death and destruction with the turn of every page. This is because the entire teamdoes a mesmerizingjob of getting you invested into this world theyhave created, and you become so fearful that theywill destroy it without hesitation…as they often do.

Mar 06, 2016Perhaps I'm wrong, and Negan has been waiting for this moment to escape. I kind of hope that I'm right, though, because it suggests two interesting arcs for Negan. It could be a kind of redemptive arc, channeling his gift for manipulation and killing into a socially-useful direction. Or, it's one hell of a revenge story, as Negan tries to make Rick more like him. Read Full Review

Mar 03, 2016It's a pretty exciting issue with some unexpected twists. Kirkman continues to lay some groundwork and put some plot points into motion. He once again is building anticipation in the reader"something that's been lacking from the comic lately. With the latest turn of events, I can't wait to see what happens next! Read Full Review

Mar 02, 2016The Walking Dead continues its shift into a compelling and uncertain future with this newest issue. It's clear that, after a period of relative peace and quiet, dark days again lie ahead for our heroes. Rick's new status quo might just be the most intriguing of all. However, the series will need to explore his questionable actions and general state of mind with more subtlety in the future. Read Full Review

Mar 07, 2016So every issue so far on this website I have reviewed the art of Charlie Adlard so instead of talking about this strengths with his art, I figured I would go over the highlights of his art in this issue. There are two spotlights from this issue I will discuss; One is when Gabriel is target practicing on zombies for the upcoming battle. A Clearly inexperienced shooter but as Charlie Adlard's art creates tension for the reader as you don't know if he can even handle shooting zombies, the larger panels shown for this is truly haunting as some good ole zombies are heading right towards the front of the page. Second, is a certain empty jail cell at the end of the issue; the panic created in this scene is chilling as a certain spiked bat loving prisoner finally makes his escape after two years of imprisonment.

TWD has always had its ups and downs, like every unending series does. I haven't been loving the Whisperers as a villain, since they seem to be more of the same (i.e. another group with bad intentions, like the Governor and the Saviors), but here Kirkman gives us at least two amazing reasons to rejoice: the mystery man behind the radio and Negan's escape. He is easily one of my favorite characters in comics in general, so to see him (probably) free again is so exciting.
